Tightening the spec

[ferrisoxide]

Hi folks

I've been thinking we need to come up with some basic constraints
around the spec - at least for the first delivery.

One thing we all seem to agree on is using JSON. I propose that we
settle on JSON as the default model for accessing data.

I've also been getting my head around the way mime types are meant to
be used in REST. The Sun Cloud API is a good example of how both JSON
and mime types can be put together to form the specification of an
API. See:

I'm not moving away from the "recipes" idea - just settling on some
details so we sketch out something that is implementable. I'm am kinda
moving away from XOXO though - if we're settling on JSON we don't
really need HTML-based conventions.

Sorry for all the random thoughts. Just dumping what's been in my
head.

Cheers
Tom
